"Hmm," Yao Jia thought. "Why do you want it?"
"I… need it for some pills I might be making," Alex lied.
"Hmm, maybe you can trade for it? I really don't know if anyone would be willing to part with it though since they can all use monster cores in some manner for themselves," Yao Jia said.
"Hmm… trade huh? I should be able to work with that," he thought. "Alright, I will think of something. I will probably have to sell some pills for sure."
"Okay, do that," Yao Jia said. She didn't really know much about pills and was quite interested in it as well.
"Oh, uncle Teng is out," she said and got up from the meadow. "Let's go."
"Umm… Uncle Teng is… senior Puma?" Alex asked.
"Yes. Let's hurry, he gets annoyed if he is made to wait too long," Yao Jia said.
"I heard that," the Puma's voice sounded inside both of their heads.
"Why do you think I spoke out loud?" Yao Jia asked jokingly.
